Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to add my voice to the debate on the Presidential Speech and welcome Members back to the House after a long one month session with their constituents. I want to squarely dwell on one issue which is really hurting the country. It is the issue of corruption. We can see some efforts being done to make sure we deal with this issue of corruption squarely. But, I want to pick from where Hon. Savula has left. It is high time this House sat down to see how we are going to help ...

question is very simple: These people have interfered with money meant for the future of this country. Among ourselves as Members of the House, we have resolved and put it very clear that we are going to relook at the laws which can deal with corruption precisely. I agree with Hon. Savula that we also need to differentiate who does what, at what level and what capacity they need. Corruption in this country is like cancer. For you to deal with cancer precisely, you either diagnose it at stage one or diagnose it at stage four and the patient dies ...

If we have that one procurement agency and all the procurement is done there, these are people who will be vetted by this House. They will be people of integrity who will not be compromised. The biggest problem in procurement is compromising the procuring agent. We are going to sit down and formulate all these changes. We hope the House will support them once they come here. For the President to show that he is committed, he will assent to them so that we do not have any lacuna when dealing with corruption. I want to say to the Kenyans ...

I am pained by my brother, the Member on the Floor, when he tries to play politics with a Report which has taken the Committee a whole week to investigate, three days to write and which gives very clear and specific directions. He is simply saying that the Report lacks direction. As a Committee of the House, recommendation No.245 is very clear. It says that: “In the recognition of the board’s failure to carry out its functions in the national interest, the appointing authority, in accordance with Section 7(3) of the State Corporations Act Cap.446, constitutes a new board.” It ...
